title: [Treatment of recurrent pterygia].
abstract: The author's work confirmed that a single administration of 0.02% mitomycin C with exposure for 3.5 minutes during surgical excision of a pterygium is an effective treatment, which reduces the percentage of recurrences of pterygium and does not induce negative effects of mitomycin C.
